Falsettos and Sunsets @ New Frontier Lounge
Falsettos and Sunsets is the story of Richard Begaldix and George Lamps, a pair of cartoony guys who fall in love and stumble head-first through the world of polyamory with outrageous physical comedy, startling emotional honesty, and slapstick existential confusion.

This fast and funny theatre show sends up modern sex and romance in a classic comedy style inspired by The Stooges and Laurel and Hardy.
